DROBAK SOUND (The night the dark ships came)

On April 7, 1940, Nazi Germany launched a sneaky and treacherous attack on Norway; without a declaration of war, dozens of German warships descended on the Norwegian coast. Only in Drobak Sound were they defeated – the heavy cruiser Blucher led a flotilla to the Oslofjord, and in Drobak Sound encountered the ancient fortress of Oscarsborg – manned by old and young boys (most of the soldiers were enlisted 7 days before the battle), and armed with weapons almost half a century old and which had never been fired in anger, the Norwegians sank the Blucher and put the other ships, thus saving Oslo from falling at the first blow – the national treasure, the Storting and the government escaped from Nazi capture, the country was able to continue fighting, in the mountains and in exile, until the final victory.

Feel free to play my songs, perform them, just make sure to give me credit. And if you record them and make money, shoot me a little, okay?
